Oh, I totally didn't notice that this was about 2021! Thanks for pointing
that out. This was not obvious to me either. Please disregard my previous
email.

I share your disappointment.

Re: [Wikimedia-l] Wikimedia Summit 2021 in Berlin cancelled

2020-09-24 Thread Tito Dutta
Greetings
Considering the brief email mostly talked about the in-person event in
Berlin, has there been any thought to break the usual timing of Wikimedia
Summit, which is generally April, and try "possibly" pushing it in the
later part of the year such as September, October, November 2021?

(I also second the question about the virtual conference)

Thanks

Re: [Wikimedia-l] Wikimedia Summit 2021 in Berlin cancelled

2020-09-24 Thread Risker
I'm not entirely certain that people outside of Europe necessarily were
aware that the in-person meeting was going to be cancelled, or at least
that a decision/announcement to cancel it would be made this far in
advance. I agree that cancellation, even seven  months before the scheduled
meeting, is an appropriate decision.

I too am a bit disappointed that there doesn't appear to be any planning
for some sort of virtual meeting, though. It will definitely affect
strategy implementation.

Maybe I'm reading it wrong, but I think the point of this message is to say
that nothing virtual will be organized either (we already knew no physical
meeting was going to happen). Which brings lots of questions as to how that
affects the strategy implementation.

Dear all,

It’s with regret that we have to inform you that due to the continued
global health situation (COVID-19), the meeting of the Wikimedia Summit 2021
and related side events in Berlin have been cancelled.



We optimistically look forward to safely reconvening in Berlin in 2022.
